Ikea launches portable wireless charger, only in Germany

(Pocket-lint) – The popular supplier of packaged lint has launched a new device, the portable wireless charger North markets.

According to a report by Mobiflip The Charger has been quietly launched and is currently exclusive to Germany.

The new device is Qi-certified and has a lithium-ion battery with a capacity of 6500 mAh. It charges via USB-C and has LED indicators on the side to indicate the current battery level.

Unfortunately, it only provides 5W of wireless charging power. The job would be done very well, but with Samsung phones accepting up to 10W wireless and the iPhone accepting 7.5W, it was nice to see more power.

As is generally the case in 2021, this device does not appear to be equipped with a wall adapter. The USB-A to USB-C cable and adapter are labeled on the packaging with the words “Excl.” printed on the second side. So the device itself appears to be the only thing included.

The device has an aesthetic typical of Ikea electronics and is somewhat similar to Symfonisk speakers, with a white plastic housing and a gray fabric top surface.

Oddly enough, Ikea made this device available in its stores in Cologne without listing it on the website. So we don’t know if or when this device will be available in other parts of the world.

The Nordmärke brand is on many Ikea wireless chargers, but this is the first time we’ve seen a portable option. The worldwide range includes a selection of desk loading blocks in various cork fabrics and finishes as well as a desk stand with a bamboo base.

Nordmärke’s portable wireless charger can be bought for 20 euros if you live near Cologne, and if not, wait to see if it goes elsewhere.
